# Upgrade from an earlier version of Studio

From PingGateway 2024.3, Studio manages the migration of deprecated objects for routes created and managed in earlier versions of Studio.

PingGateway doesn't manage migration for the following:

* Routes in Studio editor mode

* Custom filters in routes

  * Migration for routes containing secrets

    PingGateway automatically:

    * Updates the route to use SecretsProvider and SecretIds

    * Removes references to the password

    You must manually create the required SecretsProvider in `config.json` and create its referenced secrets.

  * Migration for routes containing Splunk or ElasticSearch audit event handlers

    PingGateway automatically deletes the Splunk or ElasticSearch audit event handlers from the route.
